We'll be glad to....can you post some error(s) that you're getting? Tell us what you've tried?

There are how-to's on Google about mailx:

http://linuxgazette.net/issue49/misc...-HOWTO-14.html

but again, we can't solve problems, if you don't tell us what they are. Also, be aware that mailx is the 'front end' piece of things. You need to set up some sort of mail program that actually does something with the mail. Do you have a mail server in your environment already?
